I've seen people mention before that they'd like notifications for when certain npubs post to Nostr. Nostur on iOS does this already. For us Android folks, I'm assuming that this could be done with Pokey. Maybe nostr:nprofile1qqsxg45ph8gx0vdrvtzta6xal7v86frx6jvstsnvhrlvtehmwwh4epqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuvrcvd5xzapwvdhk6tcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9nhwden5te0v4jx2m3wdehhxarj9ekxzmny9ua2vh28 could implement a subscription section, where you can add npubs to subscribe to, and you'd get notifications for when they create a new note. The technical hurdle here would be then subscribing to that npub's relays and watching them for new notes and having to do so for every npub that you're subscribing to, right? That doesn't sound efficient or battery friendly. Maybe another, better method exists? 

 I hear so many good things about Nostur, maybe one day it'll get an android release 🤞 

 It's essentially the iOS version of Amethyst. The Swiss Army knife of their respective platform. 

 Amethyst is great, it needs a serious competitor tho lol. Maybe then it'll be forced to implement pollerama polls ;) 

 That would be part of the multi-account option I have on Pokey's roadmap. 

Bevause Pokey only requires a pubkey, you will be able yo register as many accounts as you want and configure the kind of notes you want to get notified. (A notification of your own posts is just trivial)

About the relay problem, you are right, but a similar approach as the one used for the outbox model might help to mitigate the problem. 

 That's awesome that this is on your roadmap and that you're already thinking about technical solutions. I love our developers. Thank you. 

 thats wild, so i can stalk only you 

 It could be optimized so that Pokey only latches onto relays not already being scanned. This way, there would only be one hook into Damus if you're tracking multiple npubs that use Damus.  

 Oh. 

 Notifications + Alerts is a nice direction
